GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The SSM2019 is a latest generation audio preamplifier, combining SSM preamplifier design expertise with advanced processing. The result is excellent audio performance from a monolithic device, requiring only one external gain set resistor or potentiometer. The SSM2019 is further enhanced by its unity gain stability. Key specifications include ultra-low noise (1.5 dB noise figure) and THD (<0.01% at G = 100), complemented by wide bandwidth and high slew rate. Applications for this low cost device include microphone preamplifiers and bus summing amplifiers in professional and consumer audio equipment, sonar, and other applications requiring a low noise instrumentation amplifier with high gain capability.

CAUTION ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the SSM2019 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

The SSM2019 is a very low noise audio preamplifier exhibiting a typical voltage noise density of only 1 nV/Hz at 1 kHz. The exceptionally low noise characteristics of the SSM2019 are in part achieved by operating the input transistors at high collector currents since the voltage noise is inversely proportional to the square root of the collector current. Current noise, however, is directly proportional to the square root of the collector current. As a result, the outstanding voltage noise performance of the SSM2019 is obtained at the expense of current noise performance. At low preamplifier gains, the effect of the SSM2019 voltage and current noise is insignificant. The total noise of an audio preamplifier channel can be calculated by:
E n = e n 2 + ( i n RS )2 + e t 2

where: En = total input referred noise en = amplifier voltage noise in = amplifier current noise RS = source resistance et = source resistance thermal noise For a microphone preamplifier, using a typical microphone impedance of 150 W, the total input referred noise is:
E n = (1 nV Hz )2 + 2( pA / Hz 150 W)2 + (1.6 nV / Hz )2 = 1.93 nV / Hz @ 1 kHz

The voltage gain can range from 1 to 3500. A gain set resistor is not required for unity gain applications. Metal film or wire-wound resistors are recommended for best results. The total gain accuracy of the SSM2019 is determined by the tolerance of the external gain set resistor, RG, combined with the gain equation accuracy of the SSM2019. Total gain drift combines the mismatch of the external gain set resistor drift with that of the internal resistors (20 ppm/C typ). Bandwidth of the SSM2019 is relatively independent of gain, as shown in Figure 2. For a voltage gain of 1000, the SSM2019 has a small-signal bandwidth of 200 kHz. At unity gain, the bandwidth of the SSM2019 exceeds 4 MHz.

where: en = 1 nV/Hz @ 1 kHz, SSM2019 en in = 2 pA/Hz @ 1 kHz, SSM2019 in RS = 150 W, microphone source impedance et = 1.6 nV/Hz @ 1 kHz, microphone thermal noise This total noise is extremely low and makes the SSM2019 virtually transparent to the user.

INPUTS

The SSM2019 has protection diodes across the base emitter junctions of the input transistors. These prevent accidental avalanche breakdown, which could seriously degrade noise performance. Additional clamp diodes are also provided to prevent the inputs from being forced too far beyond the supplies.
(INVERTING)

TRANSDUCER (NONINVERTING)

SSM2019

Although the SSM2019 inputs are fully floating, care must be exercised to ensure that both inputs have a dc bias connection capable of maintaining them within the input common-mode range. The usual method of achieving this is to ground one side of the transducer as in Figure 3a. An alternative way is to float the transducer and use two resistors to set the bias point as in Figure 3b. The value of these resistors can be up to 10 kW, but they should be kept as small as possible to limit common-mode pickup. Noise contribution by resistors is negligible since it is attenuated by the transducers impedance. Balanced transducers give the best noise immunity and interface directly as in Figure 3c. For stability, it is required to put an RF bypass capacitor directly across the inputs, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. This capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the input terminals. Good RF practice should also be followed in layout and power supply bypassing, since the SSM2019 uses very high bandwidth devices.

b. Pseudo-Differential

The output signal is specified with respect to the reference terminal, which is normally connected to analog ground. The reference may also be used for offset correction or level shifting. A reference source resistance will reduce the common-mode rejection by the ratio of 5 kW/RREF. If the reference source resistance is 1 W, then the CMR will be reduced to 74 dB (5 kW/1 W = 74 dB).

c. True Differential Figure 3. Three Ways of Interfacing Transducers for High Noise Immunity

Ideally, a microphone preamplifier responds to only the difference between the two input signals and rejects common-mode voltages and noise. In practice, there is a small change in output voltage when both inputs experience the same common-mode voltage change; the ratio of these voltages is called the common-mode gain. Common-mode rejection (CMR) is the logarithm of the ratio of differential-mode gain to common-mode gain, expressed in dB.
PHANTOM POWERING

A typical phantom microphone powering circuit is shown in Figure 4. Z1 to Z4 provide transient overvoltage protection for the SSM2019 whenever microphones are plugged in or unplugged.

SSM2019
BUS SUMMING AMPLIFIER

In addition to its use as a microphone preamplifier, the SSM2019 can be used as a very low noise summing amplifier. Such a circuit is particularly useful when many medium impedance outputs are summed together to produce a high effective noise gain. The principle of the summing amplifier is to ground the SSM2019 inputs. Under these conditions, Pins 1 and 8 are ac virtual grounds sitting about 0.55 V below ground. To remove the 0.55 V offset, the circuit of Figure 5 is recommended. A2 forms a servo amplifier feeding the SSM2019 inputs. This places Pins l and 8 at a true dc virtual ground. R4 in conjunction with C2 removes the voltage noise of A2, and in fact just about any operational amplifier will work well here since it is removed from the signal path. If the dc offset at Pins l and 8 is not too

critical, then the servo loop can be replaced by the diode biasing scheme of Figure 5. If ac coupling is used throughout, then Pins 2 and 3 may be directly grounded.
